Why do we call it "Lent", when we don't lend anylhing? And why "Shrove" Tuesday? Pancake Day is much easier to understand. You won't find the word "Lent" in the Bible. lt actually comes from an Old English word meaning "long", and probably refers to the way that the days visibly lengthen in Spring. The 40 days of Lent, from Ash Wednesday to the day before Easter (excluding Sundays), are traditionally a time for prayer, penitence, almsgiving and self-denial. Which tends to be translated as "what are you giving up for Lent?" ln earlier times, people were forbidden from eating meat, eggs and dairy products during Lent. These had to be used up by the Tuesday, and pancakes became a popular way of doing this. (You can enjoy them this year in Ringmore Parish Room from 10.30 am.) There have been pancake races in Olney, Buckinghamshire, since 1445. Shrove Tuesday thus became a time for festivities, releasing high spirits before the sombre season of Lent. lt was often called "Fat Tuesday" (hence "Mardi Gras"), and celebrated as a carnival day. But "shrove" is actually the past tense of "shrive" (which also gives us the word "scribe"), and means to absolve. Belore the start of Lent, Christians were expected to confess their sins, do penance and obtain absolution. So Lent is a time to take stock of our lives, a time to ponder on the teachings and work of Jesus Christ, a time to prepare for the triumph of Easter. Locally, there are meetings during Lent in Kingston, Loddiswell and Modbury (see posters for details), so come along and join others as we discuss, read and pray together. fl,";/,1 Michaer d' Team Rector: The Revd Neil Barker (830260: not available on Mondays) Team Reader: Michael Tagent (81 0520) ?{,} "f e:sr5 Agc -1t.] !/er:rs Agct Accidents between St.Ann's Chapel and Foot and Mouth had been found in the Seven Stones Cross were causing concern.

RINGMORE CALENDAR 2012 The Parish Room Committee intend to produce a2012 calendar in the hope that it will be as successful as the last two. We have decided not to have a competition this time but hope that all you keen photographers will submit pictures for consideration. As before, pictures should have some connection with Ringmore. Don't forget the further flung areas of the Parish such as Challaborough, Maruell and Renton. Any photos with children in them need a consent form signed by a parent. We can provide forms if needed. You can submit photos on a USB stick (preferred ), camera card or cd. The photos should have a minimum file size of 1.5 mb. The closing date for entries is May3lst and should be given to Barry Old or James Parkin. (Alan is having a rest this year!) The final selection, from a shortlist will be made by the Printers based on reproduction quality. Happy snapping! FEBRUARY MEETING !t came as something of a surprise to find out there's no such thing as a "Tall Ship"!

  • CKW Report 9 Torcross to Kingswear
    www.gov.uk/englandcoastpath England Coast Path Stretch: Cremyll to Kingswear Report CKW 9: Torcross to Kingswear Part 9.1: Introduction Start Point: Torcross (Grid reference SX 8233 4200) End Point: Kingswear (Grid reference SX 8785 5108) Relevant Maps: CKW 9a to CKW 9h 9.1.1 This is one of a series of linked but legally separate reports published by Natural England under section 51 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, which make proposals to the Secretary of State for improved public access along and to this stretch of coast between Torcross and Kingswear. 9.1.2 This report covers length CKW 9 of the stretch, which is the coast between Torcross Point and the Dart Estuary at Kingswear. It makes free-standing statutory proposals for this part of the stretch, and seeks approval for them by the Secretary of State in their own right under section 52 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. 9.1.3 The report explains how we propose to implement the England Coast Path (“the trail”) on this part of the stretch, and details the likely consequences in terms of the wider ‘Coastal Margin’ that will be created if our proposals are approved by the Secretary of State. Our report also sets out: any proposals we think are necessary for restricting or excluding coastal access rights to address particular issues, in line with the powers in the legislation; and any proposed powers for the trail to be capable of being relocated on particular sections (“roll- back”), if this proves necessary in the future because of coastal change.
